When riding with @Lostonabike , I had a close call with a deer that decided to run across the line of my bike. Thankfully, we were able to avoid the impact on time.
Surprisingly, it felt even closer when it happened. After watching it on video, I had probably a foot or so of clearance but when it happened, I thought I missed by a few inches
Bro… who taught you to ride? You don’t use ALL your fingers for the clutch and the brake 🤦🏼♂️, you use the index and middle finger, that’s it ✌🏻 When you panicked and grabbed the brakes when the deer jumped out in front of you, you only used the pinky, ring and middle finger lol If your hands are so weak that you must use the whole hand to actuate the clutch and the brake, you need to go to the gym before you get back on a motorcycle .
@@WarWizardProductions 😆 no it’s not, it’s objectively improper riding technique, fundamentally unsafe, and will forever be a hindrance. No racer, *not a single one* , deviates from using these ✌🏻. No instructor, *not a single one* , deviates from teaching these✌🏻. It’s ok that nobody with experience has noticed and pointed it out, but I am now. Using all the fingers is slower than two, unnecessary to produce the force needed, and significantly reduces your grip on the handlebars. If it’s too hard to pull, grab farther out on the lever to increase leverage. Adjust the clutch so that when you pull it in with these ✌🏻and it hits your ring and pinky still gripping the bars it’s just beyond the friction point, giving you a good point of reference when doing low speed maneuvering and operating utilizing the friction zone/rear brake. Do the same with the front brake lever, adjust it so that you can reach it with comfortably with ✌🏻, and still have enough range of motion that you can pull it max effort without having your other two fingers stop it. Ride safe my dude, just want the best for ya. Whenever you’re coming up on a hazardous situation like an intersection, lane splitting etc, keep those ✌🏻on the front brake, it’ll save you serious reaction time in the event of emergency braking, and will inherently cause you to grab the brake in a more controlled fashion which will make it less likely for you to lock up the front in a panic. ϟkål
Damn 😂 that was close!
Extremely! Good thing I was paying attention!
😮 too close for for sure bro! 🙏🏻

Hey there. How are you? All good to feature it in my next episode? Full credits given to you, of course. Thank you!
Sure thing!

Yes it was. Around 6pm

Everything is preference. For instance, you ride a street bike on the dirt…
Thanks for the view!
